Views.B.Science & Technology.C.Art of Living.D.Entertainment.B(xx·安徽六安第一中学月考)I was about 5 when I first heard the word “Greenland”,and my interest grew from there.Finally,after decades,I decided to go.When I finally arrived,the place,at first glance,was clearly misnamed:The east coast of Greenland was an expanse(宽阔的区域) of ice and snow,with no sign of human habitation.One of my purposes of going to Greenland was to make contact with some native Greenlanders.I didn’t know I wo uld achieve this,but success came in an unexpected way.When I arrived at the Illunnguujuk Hostel,where I had reserved a bed,a young couple and their baby were out front,enjoying the sun and unusual warmth.Greenlanders speak their own Inuit language and learn Danish in school,and many also speak English well.The young woman,however,was not one of these.Her English turned out to be anticlimactic.When I identified myself,her eyes widened.Another traveler had arrived earlier and,mistaking him for me,they had given him my bed.There was no more space in the hostel.“But don’t worry,” she said,as she threw herself into cleaning a tiny house the family owned.“This is for you,” she said.And as if that weren’t enough,she invited me to eat supper with her family.That evening I sat down to a dinner of fresh fish with a loving,happy native family.When I first set foot in Greenland I found myself all but shocked by the emptiness,the vastness,and the silence.I had decided that I would probably never return.And then I was taken into this Greenlandic home.I can now say that even cold,empty,and silent scenery is worth visiting,so long as one has a warm and weling place to go to.4.What did the author intend to do in Greenland?A.Get a part-time job.B.Live with a native family.C.Make some native contact.D.Do business with the natives.5.What does the underlined word “anticlimactic” in Paragraph 4 mean?A.Simple.B.Modern.C.Outstanding.D.Disappointing.6.The author lost his bed in the hostel because of .A.the language barrierB.a misunderstandingC.a wrong addressD.the high price7.What made the author’s visiting Greenland worthwhile?A.Tasting the local food.B.Helping a local family.C.Meeting friendly people.D.Enjoying the great scenery.Ⅱ.七选五(xx·广东阳春一中月考)Stop Negative Talk“I’m so fat,” one of your friends says.The girl next to her joins in.“Well,I hate my hair today.” Without thinking,you respond,“No,you are not fat!I am fat.And my hair is flat and boring.” 8 It is easy for people to engage in self-critical conversations,and once it starts there is often pressure for you to join in. 9 Maybe it is because “just talking” feels harmless.But before you know it,those opinions flow out of your conversations and into your life,where they start eating away at your self-respect.10 When you start talking about yourself in a negative way,you are not only affecting your self-respect,but your friends’!When you criticize yourself,your friends might think you have the same standards for them.You have heard that it is important to treat others the way you want to be treated,but there is also value in treating yourself like you treat your friends.If you wouldn’t criticize your friend for the same thing,chances are that you are being too hard on yourself.So,d on’t start it.But what if someone else starts?For example,your friend feels insecure about how well he played in his soccer game,so he puts himself down.“I suck at soccer.” 11 Ask him,“Do you really think that?Why?” Maybe he is actually upset about a ment someone made,or is just getting down on himself over one bad play.Whatever it is,talking through the real issue will help him more than slipping into another negative talk.It is important to talk to your friend about your insecurities,but make sure you are not talking about them just to put yourself down. 12 Instead of just focusing on the negative,talk about what makes you and your friends beautiful and unique—including what you love about your body and what you have acplished.When you show yourself love,you set yourself as an example,and everyone benefits from you positively.A.Negative talk affects self-respect.B.Criticizing yourself helps nobody.C.But why do we hesitate to praise ourselves?D.But why is it acceptable to talk so negatively?E.All it takes is just one ment and the negative talk starts.F.It is better to resist negative conversations and create more balanced ones.G.Before everyone puts himself down,see if you can get to the root of the problem.Ⅲ.语法填空(xx·广东湛江调研)Do you like traveling?13.

seller Alibaba does not think China and the United States will have a trade war despite comments from the Trump administration.Jack Ma is the chairman of the Alibaba Group.At the World Economic Forum meeting in Davos,Switzerland,he said,“China and the US will never have a trade war.Give Trump some time.He’s open­minded;he’s listening.”The Chinese billionaire said he would do all he could to prevent trade relations between the countries from getting worse.Last week,Ma met with Trump at the Trump Tower in New York City.The Chinese billionaire is said to have discussed a plan to permit one million small US businesses to sell goods on Alibaba’s online shopping platform.During the campaign and after winning the presidential election,Trump strongly criticized the Chinese government’s support for its businesses.He blamed unfair trade policies for taking away US jobs.And he said that China unfairly controls the exchange value of its currency,the yuan.Trump also has threatened to place import taxes on goods from China and othercountries in response to their trade policies.According to the South China Morning Post,Ma said,“American international companies made millions and millions of dollars from globalization.” He added that the US should not blame the loss of jobs and companies on globalization.However,a new study by an American business group says many US businesses feel unwelcome in China.The companies say the cost of doing business in China is increasing.They add that rules and regulations are unclear or not enforced in a consistent way.The American Chamber of Commerce in China led the study,which looked at responses from 462 companies.William Zarit is chairman of the chamber.He says trade policies in China make it difficult for American companies.He says,“We feel that over the last few years that we’ve been taken advantage of to some extent,with our open market and the lack of open areas in the Chinese market.”Another major concern for the US companies in China is fake products.Fake products are copies of the originals that cost businesses with the legal right to sell them millions of dollars each year.Ma defende d Alibaba’s efforts to fight fake products on its shopping platform.He said his company is doing all it can to fight the problem.“Fighting against fake products is a war against human greediness,” Ma said.I’m Mario Ritter.1.The underlined phrase “The Chinese billionaire” refers to “”.A.TrumpB.Jack MaC.Mario RitterD.William Zarit2.The text is likely taken from the .A.economic magazineB.trade

typical,it probably includes a commitment to lose weight.But if you are like most Americans,any success you have in cutting pounds will be short­lived,and you’ll end the year weighing more than you do right now.So why are Americans addicted to weight loss?Many people say they want to lose weight to improve their health,but this may not actually be their primary motivation.In one of the more interesting surveys I’ve seen,more than three­fourths of the 231 dieters surveyed said that they would take a pill that would guarantee they would achieve or maintain their desired weight even if it would lower their life expectancy.On average,they were willing to give up 5.7 years.These findings may seem puzzling,but they are not so surprising when you consider weight­loss attempts for what they really are:efforts to protect against weight­based discrimination.Yale researchers have shown that weight discrimination in the US has increased dramatically in the last decade and is now comparable in prevalence(普遍) to rates of reported racial discrimination,especially among women.Multiple studies have documented weight prejudice in employment,health care,education and public spaces—unequal treatment based on stereotyping(模式化) fat people as lazy,unmotivated,sloppy and lacking in self­control and competence.When I was doing research for a book on the social understanding of fat,several heavy women told me they were often blamed for eating in public.Some tearfully shared stories of having had people actually throw food at them.Heavy women are routinely teased in advertisements,television and film.Of course,there are genuine health risks associated with higher body mass.The clearest case is that of Type 2 diabetes,which becomes more likely as weight goes up.It is clear that anti­fat prejudice in and of itself has a bad effect on public health in ways many may not suspect.Fear of tease leads many heavier women to avoid exercising in public or even—when they are very heavy—to avoid leaving their homes,taking away social interaction from them.And the fear of becoming fat can lead women of all sizes to develop eating disorders that can reduce their lives and be dangerous to their health.What should be done about weight­based d iscrimination?The answer is to callfor increasing tolerance and appreciation of diverse body types.This year,before setting about another diet,ask yourself why you want to lose weight.If it is to improve your health,perhaps you should focus on health­inc reasing behaviours that are more directly linked to health:swear,for example,to get more sleep,eat more fruits and vegetables,get regular physical activity,or spend more time with friends.But if you are trying to change your body to protect against discrimination and shame,consider making a different kind of new year’s determination:to stand up to intolerance and prejudice in all its various forms.答案精析高考高频单词与短语识记排查跟踪训练Ⅰ.1.reality 2.Briefly 3.reporter 4.violence

thirty­year­old Australian full­time mum living on a farm outside Launceston,didn’t consider herself a very good water saver.Neither did her partner who often complained about it with good reasons.Their farm had to rely on tank water and solar power,which meant water had to be trucked in if the tank water ran out in summer.“I looked at where I could save because I could lead an easier life without the complaint,” she said.Modeling her idea on a car thermostat(恒温器),Lindy used her kids’ magnetic(磁的) drawing board to design a device that diverts the cold water back down the hot water pipe.“The first aim when I started designing was to keep it really small and simple without having to use power.I wanted to keep it as something that everyone could use,” said Lindy.She got a patent for her design and took it to some engineers to have it tested out.At first,even though the engineers were amazed that she wasn’t an engineer,she said she sometimes found it hard to be taken seriously.“My age was a real factor because in the plumbing(管路系统) and manufacturing industries you’re dealing with people who’ve got a lot of experiences,” she said.But the engineers soon saw the potential of her design,which she estimated would save average families between 14,000 to 22,000 liters per year.“When you t ransfer that to the dollar savings on tank water that you have to buy,it can be a saving of 600 per year,” said Lindy.Armed with positive feedback from engineers and people using rainwater tanks,her design proved a great success.Soon she found a manufacturer early this year,and completed a state government commercial ready course to help her research,her markets and distribution channels.With an Australian Standard for her device just approved,she’s about to start

2019版高考英语阅读理解一轮提升选练3含解析

2019版高考英语阅读理解一轮提升选练(3)AThe story of Sir Nicholas Winton is the one that you would imagine could only happen on the silver screen. Sir Nicholas Winton was a British man who went to heroic efforts, potentially putting himself at risk, during World War II. Sir Winton was responsible for ensuring the safety of six hundred and sixty-nine Jewish children by aiding their escape from countries occupied by Nazis. Finally, the Jewish children were brought to England where he worked to make sure families in his native country would help the kids by taking them into their homes.Recently, this unbelievable story has again been making the rounds on the Internet, particularly after a rerun of the BBC show called “That’s Life”, which featured Sir Winton. People around the world were moved at the details of the story, with saying it to be the best story they’ve ever seen.Sir Winton kept his entire plan completely secret, even his wife had no idea about his planning until fifty years later. After the war, years passed and many people remained in the dark about Sir Winton’s extraordinary achievement. Some fifty years later, his wife Greta was searching in their house and discovered a Winton’s notebook which documented the names of all the children. She worked with BBC and they produced a TV episode (插曲) of their program “That’s Life” that served as an honor for Sir Winton’s work.In 2003, Sir Winton was knighted by the Queen of England for his work. He also was even nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize. He also had a small planet named after him by Czech astronomers. Sir Winton died peacefully in his sleep at the old age of one hundred and six, in 2015. Leaders around the world paid tribute (悼念). Israel’s ambassador to the United Kingdom, Daniel Taub, said, “He was a hero of our time, having saved 669 Jewish children from Nazis. His story, as a point of light in a period of darkness, will forever be remembered.”1.What happened to the 669 Jewish children?A. They were killed by Nazis.B. They returned to their own homes.C. They fled to their native countries.D. They were raised by English families.2.What made Winton’s story spread widely?A. People’s chatting online.B. The program “That’s Life”.C. His wife’s promotion.D. Praises from some leaders.3.Which of the followi ng can replace the underlined expression “remained in the dark’, in Paragraph 3?A. felt doubtfulB. remained movedC. knew nothingD. criticized something4.What do we know about Winton?A. He was born in 1909.B. Nazis tried to arrest him.C. He named a small planet.D. Many children paid tribute to him.【文章大意】文章主要讲述Sir Nicholas Winton在纳粹期间帮助669个犹太孩子逃到英国的故事。

beauty,here is a look at the most beautiful small towns in Europe.ManarolaManarola,Italy,is filled with rainbow­colored homes carved right into a wall of stone along the Mediterranean coast.This charming fishing town is famous for its unbelievable wine,and the paintings.There are no cars here,no traffic lights,and no traffic noise.You can drive to Manarola,but you’ll have to park just outside the town and then take a shuttle bus or walk in on foot.Garmisch­PartenkirchenGarmisch­Partenkirchen,Germany,is a fascinating mountain town.Once two separate towns,one Roman and the other Teutonic,the 1936 Winter Olympics forced them to bine,though the two sides still have different characters.The town dates back to 15 AD,filled with narrow,cobblestoned streets lined with historic three­or four­story buildings painted with regional and religious scenes.MarsaxlokkThe energetic trading port of Marsaxlokk,Malta,was built in 900 BC.Today,this picturesque(风景如画的) town is the main supplier of fish to the island nation that sits in the Mediterranean Sea.It has no modern buildings to ruin its appeal.With such quiet surroundings,including the traditional luzzu’s (fishing boats),it’s a particularly charming place to visit.Portmagee,IrelandIn a country filled with beautiful towns,Portmagee,is a standout,sitting on the southwest coast of Ireland.This postcard­perfect seaside fishing town has a row of brightly colored buildings along with a rich and colorful history.At The Bridge Bar,you’ll find live music many nights of the week along with fantastic food anda fine glass of

mean?A.Background.B.Attractiveness.C.Tradition.D.Development.B(xx·华大新高考联盟教学质量测评)Decades before the first unacpanied child was put on a plane to grandm a’s in the care of a flight attendant,a few resourceful parents acplished the same end by simply dropping their kids in the mail.This was in the earliest days of the parcel post service,which launched in 1913.Before that,U.S.Postal Service packages were capped at four pounds.But when the parcel service began,in a few cases,human young showed up in the mail stream.According to National Postal Museum historian Nancy Pope,the first known case of a mailed baby was in 1913 when Mr and Mrs Jesse Beauge of Glen Este,Ohio,shipped their 10­pound infant son to his grandmother’s home about a mile away,paying 15 cents in postage and springing for 50 in insurance (because they were worriers).But some children were mailed much farther,Pope said.Edna Neff of Pensacola,Florida,was 6 when she was packed off to her father’s home in Christiansburg,Va.,720 miles away.The precious parcels weren’t truly parcels in the brown­paper.Instead they were more like panions in the arms of their carriers or walked along the route(路线).But the most famous mailed child,May Pierstorff,was indeed sent by an Idaho railwaymail car in 1914 with the appropriate stamps stuck to her traveling coat.May’s picture survives,but no physical evidence of her trip.“We would sure love to have that coat,” P ope said.In 1914,the postmaster general instituted a rule about the mail that stands to this day:no humans.But that didn’t stop an ambitious thief
